Abstract
A noise filtering device, method, and chip for a dynamic vision sensor (DVS), and an event-driven vision device, and an electronic device are provided. In order to meet multi-dimensional requirements of a denoising solution such as power consumption, delay, storage resources, calculation resources, denoising effect, applicable range of noise types, and hardware implementation difficulty, in this disclosure, global space-domain and time-domain informations are simultaneously aggregated in a shift register, or latest time-domain informations are collected through a space domain, and finally, whether an event generated by a DVS is a noise event is judged on the basis of clustering of space-domain informations and the time-domain informations. While achieving excellent denoising performance, this disclosure has outstanding advantages in the aforementioned multiple dimensions because of advantages of parallel and simple calculation and no dependence on a DVS resolution, etc.
